Parent Participation

Parents & Friends Association

This group of parent volunteers organises social events to encourage and support a community feeling at the school.

All parents are welcome to attend. The committee is responsible for raising funds to maximise the school’s education facilities and have recently raised money to build a new playground and to have shade sails installed.

Parent representatives Parents Representatives

Each class at Milgate PS welcomes a Parent Representative to undertake a range of roles to support classroom and wider school community activities.

These include organising for class parents’ morning teas and dinners; distributing a ‘friendship list’ to assist families in making contact with each other for children’s after school visits and birthday parties; assisting the class teacher with photocopying, displays and other duties; supporting classroom families as particular needs arise; and gathering support for whole school events by contacting a small network of families.
